"The lunch menu is priced at £15.50 for 3 courses with a glass of wine, which is great value. We had a nice lunch on Tuesday, but were not happy when the waiter started clearing the table while one of us was still eating. The table next to us also had the same problem and their bill was reduced as a result. Perhaps the waiter needs to improve their customer service skills, as we have never encountered this issue before. However, this won't deter us from returning soon, as the food is always excellent."

"What a fantastic place! We have dined on seafood from various locations and must admit that everything was incredibly fresh and satisfying. We made a reservation and confirmed it with the staff. Upon our arrival in the evening, we were treated with great care. The oysters from Colchester were a highlight; one of our guests claimed they were better than the ones she had in France and were exceptionally fresh. We enjoyed a wonderful selection of different fish and squid, which was prepared in a unique yet excellent manner. The salmon and plaice were also very fresh and delicious, and the sea bass was delightful as well! The new potatoes were excellent, and the chips were even better than what you find at most other places. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Overall, it was a fantastic experience!"

"Our 20 yr old student son was visiting Ipswich as part of an upcoming placement. He had to stay in a hotel for two nights on his own and eat out for dinner as nothing available in the hotel. He went to ASK at around 6.30pm and asked for a table … he was told they ‘already had too many’ despite all the empty tables and him being on his own. Very offhand and rude and made him feel very uncomfortable. On phoning afterwards we were told they were short staffed and having a difficult day. Nice of them to take it out on a young man on his own. Shameful behaviour! The reality is he was one person, it was early doors, and all he wanted was a warm meal after a long day. He wouldn’t have been taking a table up all night and making demands on the staff. If you happen to find yourself in a similar situation save yourself the trouble and just go to Prezzo. Or just go to Prezzo in any event."

"Stopped here on a Sunday morning for a late lunch. The staff were lovely, but the service was slow. Maybe additional team members needed for the brunch/lunch time. The food, while on the pricier sider, was of fab quality you could tell everything on the lovely full english was of good quality."

"The food arrived in a timely manner, well presented, hot, and served as requested (beef). Our plates were cleared in a reasonable time after we finished, and we ordered desserts, which also came out quickly. I had no issues with my dessert; I simply asked to swap bananas for vanilla ice cream, and that was done without any fuss. Everything was delicious. The portion sizes were generous, even for my mom, who has a small appetite. She enjoyed her meal so much that she nearly cleared her plate. Overall, we had a very pleasant experience, and I would definitely recommend this restaurant to friends. We look forward to returning in the near future. Thank you!"
